Aspiring orators whn Began but Never
Finished Their Speeches.
The Fourth Of July orator is figure we
could not possibly dispense with The chest.

part Of our patriotic history, and he it is who
keeps the eagle from becoming too arrogant.
He mounts it and scars into the blue empyrean,
triumphnntly brandi>hing the triple hued
banner as be goes, AMI the proud bird Of
freedom cannot help himself One ancient
chestnut relates how an untrird but ambitious
Independence orator began n Fourth of July
panegyric thus;
"tellow citizens: On The Fourth 1T July,
l1i6, the American eagle took his first un.
fettcred flight towards the ideal land Of
freedom He went up and up before the ap-
proving gaze Of our noble foretathers But
never has his fight heen SO high and glorious
as to-day. Behold him, my friends and
fellow patriots! Behold the noble bird who
typitieS the principle for which our fathers
fought aud died He goes up, fired with the
pride which has made us "a free and prosper
Gus nation. Yes, he goes up, followed by the
acclamationS Of 60,OOn,000 Of people. Yes,
my fellow patriots, he goes up, cleaving the
air with proud wings, and glores in his
freedom and his strength. He goes up and
up and up. We watch him till he becomes
mere Speck in the blue OF heaven. Yet
he goes further He goes mp ard mp and
up, until he fades entirely from our sight.
Yet he is there, my friends and fellow citi.
zens be is there and still rising. Though we
cannot see him, we know that he is still
going up and up and up. Yes, noble patriots,
he is .tll ascending. When we see him no
more with our natural eyes we can still fol-
low him with the eyes of imaginatiOn-stil
see him rising. Yes, with pride we see him
90 up and up and up and up And still
higher. Yes, he is still going up and up and
up and up
this.interesting point the gifted orator lost
his bearings. Mopping his brow in agony he
vainly gropei through his chaotic brain for
the thread OF his Grafton At last, still gaz-
ing skyward, he said "Confound the bird! |
